Delivering "a gripping insider's view of the secret world of
nuclear security" (W.E.B. Griffin), Dick Couch's explosive novel
poses the chilling and timely question: How safe are America's
waterways from terrorist threat?
Riding quietly at her moorings on Puget Sound, the U.S. Navy's
deadly weapon -- the Trident submarine -- waits for her return to
the sea. But an Arab terrorist known as the Shadow has targeted the
USS "Michigan," with nearly three hundred nuclear warheads nestled
in its missile silos. He intends to take the deadliest weapon of
the Cold War and turn it into the deadliest dirty bomb conceivable
-- by hijacking the "Spokane," flagship of the nation's largest
ferry fleet. The nation, caught by surprise, sends a select team of
Navy SEALs to stop the Shadow. They are aided by a savvy FBI agent
and the ferry's captain, Ross Peck. Unless the U.S. wields its
political might to support his terrorist brothers in the Middle
East, the Shadow will unleash a radiological holocaust, and a
nightmare beyond imagining. . . .
